Lowell Damon House, Greek Revival residential building in Wauwatosa, United States.
The two-story clapboard house features diamond-paned frieze windows, pilasters, and cornice returns characteristic of Colonial and Greek Revival architecture at 2107 Wauwatosa Avenue.
Oliver Damon constructed the initial ell wing in 1844 using wood from nearby forests, and by 1846 the front section was completed, making it Wauwatosa's oldest surviving home.
The Milwaukee County Historical Society preserved the house as a museum until 2020, documenting construction methods from young saplings and timber shaped with visible adze marks.
The house received recognition through its listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 and the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places in 1989.
The construction reveals uncommon architectural elements for Wisconsin, including a broad front with single-room depth and distinctive diamond-paned frieze windows on side walls.
